Identifing a 727?

[Bstoker87]

So I'm doing manual swap in my uncles 1970 Cuda and have pulled a working 727 out from behind the hemi.

The hemi and trans are not original to the car but the 727 does have a VIN stamp on it. I know the trans is a 69 case that shows it came behind a 383 or 440, just wondering if the vin can tell me what it came out of and possibly make it's way back to that car.

The hemi has no VIN stamp and we believe it was a over the counter purchase back in the day.

If I recall correctly , A is St Louis & the home of most B bodies

The numbers should be stamped on the left pan rail. What are those numbers ?

That part i already knew, i was hoping someone could tell me which one it came in based on the VIN stamp.

Unfortunately you don't have the full first part of the vin.
Here is a vin decoder.

"A" is actually Lynch Road. Someone more in-the-know can chime in, but I believe that the car models built there, in that time frame, are Belvedere (Satellite), Coronet, and Monaco. Any of those could have been built in one form or another with a 440-4 350hp (possibilities include 2-door, 4-door, convertible or wagon, I believe). The 383-4 335hp would only have been in the Roadrunner, or Superbee. GTX would not have been available at a post coupe "21"; Superbee would not have been available as a convertible "27". Transmission's build date of 2863 is Friday, May 30, 1969, which matches well with the near-300000 VIN stamp being fairly late in the model year...some time in June for the original car's build.

I believe that is the extent of what I can speculate from the info provided. Torque converter, shift linkage/kick-down, driveshaft yoke, speedometer pinion types could all give further clues as to what it might have originated in, but those part all could have been (and likely were) changed to execute the swap into the current vehicle.

I got no hits on a very cursory web search.

FWIW
